💅 TRANSICC(1) — the group chat version 🎀

okay bestie, welcome to transicc, from the General Commands Manual section of the manual (yes we're fancy, we have a section) — this is the little cms ColorSpace conversion calculator and she is iconic ✨

🌈 NAME 🌈

transicc — little cms ColorSpace conversion calculator. that's it, that's the whole vibe 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

transicc [options] [CGATSINPUT] [CGATSOUTPUT]

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

so lcms is a standalone CMM engine, right? and she deals with the color management 💅 she implements a fast transformation between ICC profiles — like, no cap, fast fast. and transicc is the lcms ColorSpace conversion calculator. that's her. that's the girl. 👑

✨ OPTIONS ✨

okay here's the whole menu, no skips, we're eating everything 🍓

  • -b — Black point compensation. do it bestie.
  • -c NUM — Precalculates transform (0=Off, 1=Normal, 2=Hi-res, 3=LoRes) [defaults to 1].
  • -d NUM — Observer adaptation state (abs.col. only), (0..1.0, float value) [defaults to 0.0].
  • -e — Encoded representation of numbers is not float (Option -w=use 16 bits, Option -x=hexadecimal). it's giving "not float" energy 💀
  • -g — Marks out-of-gamut colors on softproof.
  • -i profile — Input profile (defaults to sRGB).
  • -l — Transform by device-link profile.
  • -m NUM — SoftProof intent (0,1,2,3) [defaults to 0].
  • -n — Terse output, intended for pipe usage. for the pipe girlies 🫶
  • -o profile — Output profile (defaults to sRGB).
  • -q — Quantize CGATS to 8 bits.
  • -s — Bounded mode.
  • -t NUM — Rendering intent, and there are so many flavors bestie:
    • 0=Perceptual [default]
    • 1=Relative colorimetric
    • 2=Saturation
    • 3=Absolute colorimetric
    • 10=Perceptual preserving black ink
    • 11=Relative colorimetric preserving black ink
    • 12=Saturation preserving black ink
    • 13=Perceptual preserving black plane
    • 14=Relative colorimetric preserving black plane
    • 15=Saturation preserving black plane
  • -v verbosity — Verbosity level, (0=None, 1=Normal, 2=High, 3=Very High) [defaults to 1].
  • -w — Use 16 bits.
  • -x — Hexadecimal.

and the little bonus fact you're gonna be obsessed with:

You can use '*Lab' and '*xyz' as built-in profiles. 🌸 built-in besties, we love to see it.
